Cumbernauld’s The Dykeenies got their big break two years ago in a talent competition, albeit a credible one set up by venerable Glasgow venue King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut. Their stratospheric take on indie rock should see the quintet, featuring three brothers – Alan, Andrew and Brian Henderson - go much, much further. Current single Stitches establishes the template: twisting rhythms and enormous, synth-powered choruses.
Their debut album Nothing Means Everything is released on 17 September.
